No one could tell what thought had soured his mood, but a short while later, Julia, alongside all her Brown and Green family members, turned and wandered deeper into the crowd.

Yale trailed after them, only to realize they were heading straight for Franklin.

Franklin was surrounded by a tight circle of heavyweight corporate CEOS and world-renowned academic researchers. Just a Julia’s family drew near, Dr. Mercer finished changing out of his event blazer and headed over to join Franklin’s group as well.

Every industry luminary clustered around Franklin knew who Julia was, yet few of them had any familiarity with her

patents

Thanks to Franklin’s close personal connection to Julia, Dr. Mercer and all the business magnates beside him greeted Logan and Janice politely, shaking hands and exchanging embossed business cards one after another.

Dr. Mercer offered them a cordial, professional smile. “So these are Miss Brown’s family. It’s a pleasure to meet you all.”

After the quick introductions wrapped up, Franklin and the circle of distinguished guests resumed their earlier high-level discussion.

Dr. Mercer and his circle of distinguished academics had fallen into some lively discussion. Noticing Johnny and Maggie were absent from their huddle, he sent an assistant over to fetch the pair.

Dr. Mercer turned to face Johnny and Maggie once they arrived. “What have you two been busy with? Care to join our conversation for a while?”

Johnny offered a polished, polite smile. “Of course I have time.”

As he spoke, he shot a quick glance at Franklin and Julia, then subtly curled his lip in quiet disdain.

Maggie had spotted Franklin and Julia too, yet her features remained perfectly neutral, no flicker of emotion showing on her
